The month of July is poised to be particularly special and significant from the perspective of planetary movements and astrology. In this month, a total of 6 major planets – the Sun, Saturn, Jupiter (Guru/Brihaspati), Mercury, Venus, and Mars – will change their position or motion. Due to these changes, there is a possibility of a profound impact not only on individuals' horoscopes but also on the conditions of the country and the world.
According to astrology, changes in the movement of planets often indicate political instability, natural disasters, situations like war, and ups and downs in people's personal lives.
